Like RHEL/CentOS, Ubuntu LTS is absolutely appropriate for server use.
In fact, it's sort of refreshing to set up a new server that isn't
overloaded with bloat from the very start. Setting up a new VMWare image
w/ Ubuntu Server takes at most 10 minutes whereas doing the same w/
CentOS 5 takes almost an hour (easier just to clone my base install copy
kept for just that purpose).

I actually use Fedora for my Desktop. It dual boots to Ubuntu but I
don't often use it. The only reason that I ever saw people using Fedora
for production was because the RHEL/CentOS software packages were so
completely out-of-date.
